My Project

When you take a peek at my classroom you will see eager faces, ready to learn.

You will see students who enjoy sharing laughter with their peers, putting their problem-solving skills to use with STEAM activities, creating artwork, and playing with their friends.

In second grade we do a money unit. During this unit, we work with coins to learn their values and practice creating different amounts of money. I am requesting a variety of coins along with storage to act as our banks.

With these supplies, my students will be able to stay organized as they work through our money unit.
